Engadget Spotlights CSAIL Research

In the first of two videos, CSAIL graduate student Peng Yu explains his work with autonomous flying, demonstrating a system developed by MERS to control quadcopters through voice and hand gestures. Yu also demonstrated a new simulation of a futuristic air taxi, which would allow for transport via an autonomous airplane that MERS envisions operating like a taxi.
